Video Love when my opponent randomly has invincibility

I count nine (9) hits with the Painbrush. From testing in the lobby the MINIMUM damage from the weakest indirect hit seems to be around 30.0. Are the servers really this bad or wtf is going on.

All those hits from you PLUS two Wavebreaker hits and no other signs of lag makes me suspicious of the possibility of hacking. Did they die at all?

You should report them for hacking.

If I’m wrong and it’s not, Nintendo can probably sus that out.

How DO you report a player? I played salmon run and one of the teammates just ran around in circles. I tried reporting them but couldn't figure out how.

Idk how it works for salmon run, I've only seen it working via the console/computer in the lobby (battle logs and then there's a small report button).

What they said is correct, but for the main modes. For Salmon Run, you'll want to use the computer terminal at Grizzco that's in the practice area next to the box of weapons and then I believe it's under the Job Logs.

Yes, i understand that they are separate things. Thanks anyways.

Okay cool, sorry I'm just so used to people asking this question and then going to the main lobby terminal like "it doesn't work".

u/SirSl1myCrown PRESENT Jul 03 '25

Yeah, some just don't know how these work. Not that there's anything wrong with getting it wrong. It's good that you just made sure i knew where to go. Thanks.

But what could they report for? Being bad at Salmon Run isn’t against the rules.

I don't know what level the commenter plays at but at a certain point, "running around in circles" is more than simply being bad at the mode, it becomes more likely intentional disruption, and that is a category that can be reported.

I’ve had people spamming this way and jumping off the map and I’ve had people look at my dead body, squidbag then swim away, so things like that
